The 28-year-old tennis ace, who tied the knot with his longtime love earlier in April, are believed to have revealed their big news to their close ones, following Kim's visit to hospital for a 12-week scan, the Mirror reported. The baby is expected to arrive in February 2016.

Tabloid media claimed that the British tennis star's mother Judy (55) who's previously expressed her eagerness to become a grandma, and his brother Jamie, were ecstatic after hearing the news. Recently, Judy had enthused that she was 'really looking forward to being a granny' and that she is hoping to have a 'very active' role in her grandchild's life.

Murray and Sears married in the 28-year-old tennis player's hometown of Dunblane in April. Murray enjoyed some fine run soon after marrying Sears. The Scotsman reached the semi-finals of the French Open and Wimbledon tournaments, and even won his first titles on clay.

Meanwhile, it is being reported that Sears possibly got pregnant during the French Open, where Murray lost to Serbian World No 1 Novak Djokovic during the semi-finals in June.
